I think it would be helpful to add a drop-down menu to the top of the States page that would allow us to filter by entity type.
eg. All, Automations, Binary Sensors, Cameras, Device Trackers, etc etc.
As more and more components are being added seemingly every day the list of entities can grow to be a bit unwieldy. It would be nice to be able to narrow down what you are trying to test or examine.
I like this idea. As is, I use find on page to quickly get to where I’m going, but I tend to have to skip through the group section before I find what I’m looking for.
Not a huge deal with average to small sized installs, but with close to 500 entities in that list, it’s getting a little unwieldy.
Something which I’ve found annoying recently is when I know I’m looking for a non-binary sensor but don’t know the full name. I start with sensor. to try filter the list to everything in the sensor domain but this then includes all binary sensors and since it’s listed alphabetically they all appear at the top.
It would also be good to exclude text searches from matching on the domain part. I was just trying to search for all of my “bin” sensors but this matched on binary_sensor and returned all of those as well (at the top of the list again).
